ISIS: The World's Newest Holocaust

Many Christians were displaced when Islamic forces invaded large Christian cities in Iraq. People from different social and religious backgrounds are at the camps. One thing the people all have in common is the loss of their homes. A priest, Father Douglas Bazi, stated that, “During the first week, the only thing I could hear was crying” (qtd. In “Inside The Refugee Camps Of Northern Iraq”). The refugees were devastated that their homes, and that even some peoples lives were taken away. The refugees do get medical attention for psychological conditions they may have. Experiencing the trauma they had experienced having their home taken away can cause psychological problems. The refugee camps in Iraq house people who have had their homes taken from them.

Walter Kirn, an American novelist and literary critic, stated that ‘‘Everyone loves a witch hunt as long as it’s someone else’s witch being hunted.’’ (Web. Walter Kirn Quote) Although the Salem Witch Trials took place over 300 years ago, in 1692, and we claim that we have come a long way since then, the truth is we have not. The hysteria that took place during the witch trials occurred because people refused to take responsibility for their actions. The same thing is happening in modern day America due to a 4 year long civil war, in Syria, and a mounting war on terrorism, in the United States. Syrians are fleeing their country because of the impending civil war, of 4 years, between those loyal to President Bashar al-Assad and those who oppose him, the rebels. Accepting refugees from war torn countries has always been something the United States has done, even if it caused some controversy. However, there has never been more controversy on whether or not to accept refugees from Syria. This is because of the terrorist groups in Syria who have continued to execute fatal attacks on Westernized countries, specifically the United States. A number of U.S. citizens do not want to accept Syrian refugees for fear that some refugees could pose potential threats or have relations with the terrorist group, ISIS.

A refugee is generally thought of as an individual who flees their country due to (but not limited to) racial, religious, or ideological persecution. These people often leave war-torn countries where violence and tyranny strips the very freedoms and opportunities that are the inalienable backbone of the United States. It is no surprise, then, that immigrants from every stretch of the planet have settled in America, freely practicing their beliefs and often playing a critical role in the entrepreneurial development of our capitalist foundation. One such group is the Chaldeans. Hailing from small villages in the north of Iraq—a place historically referred to as Mesopotamia—where the ancient Babylonians once made their home, the Chaldeans are a Catholic group of people who speak Aramaic, the language of Christ. Throughout the last century, the introduction of Saddam Hussein and the

Earlier this week The New York Times issued an account in their Sunday paper discussing the critical topic in regards to America accepting Refugees from the Middle East. The Times honed in on this topic in the column “ U.S Will Accept More Refugees as Crisis Grows”, written by Michael R. Gordon, Alison Smale, and Rick Lyman. The feature begins to discuss the problems that are being raised in the Middle East. Hundreds of thousands of men, women, and families in countries like Syria, Iraq, Somalia, and Bhutan are in danger due to the fact that their countries are facing war. This leads to the people of these countries being forced to leave in order to escape the war and oppression. These people are called Refugees. The problem cultivates as wealthier neighboring countries become reluctant in helping these refugees because of their anti-refuge politics. Refugees are then forced to travel as far away as they can, paying until they can no longer go any further. They are then forced into labor, later leading them to escape in an unsafe and deathly manner across the Mediterranean sea to Europe. This being the cause of the many deaths of men, women, and children across the Middle East as they had hopes of a better life elsewhere.The Washington Post also reflects on this subject in their column, “Refugees in America: Syrian family rebuilds life in the U.S” by Deepti Hajela. Hajela interviews a Syrian family, the Roustom. The father Hassan Al Roustom exclaims,

The United States is praised in social studies classes for being a “melting pot” that accepts all no matter their race, creed, or religion. However, one group of Americans is claiming they are being unfairly persecuted for their faith, because they are unable to practice it the way they see fit. They are not a minority religion or newly established, but in fact Christians. Considering that Christianity is the largest faith group in this United States, it is important to analyze these claims of injustice and determine if there is a valid argument at play. It is also vital to examine what role Christians play within these conflicts and the current American landscape. Once these two elements are explored, other instances of documented religious

On November 13, 2015, a tragic event happened in the heart of Pairs. As the evening fell and the day was coming to an end, the public was in line for an unexpected attack. Shots began to fire throughout the capital as a well-organized terrorists group named ISIS began to fire at the citizens of Pairs. ISIS is a terrorist group who wants to take control over others and have power to overthrow the government. The attack in Pairs is an example of the organization skills as well as the type of power that the Islamic State has. The terrorist group ISIS has a long history which leads to the attacks in Pairs and what governments are doing about the threat.

From the Nazi’s supporting Hitler because of his promises to the Jews being captured and slaughtered. From reading each point of view we got to see and sometimes feel the tension and stress in the situation. This is something we lack with in modern society, especially when something has been deemed bad or harmful in a way. In the news and social outlets it’s always a one sided point of view on things and an aura of arrogance surrounding many opinions. This specific thinking is what holds us back as not only a society, but as a people and allow for the creation of such organization as ISIS to form and prosper. This sort of mentality has proved over and over that it’s destructive and unhealthy in building a unified nation or country. Although it has been proving and saw throughout history with events such as, The Holocaust, Slavery, The Civil War, or even the American Revolution. The lack of understanding or acknowledgement of other's feelings and emotions has led to the development of all these historical events and all events resemble a dark period of history, that is ignored and easily forgotten by the common

A.Terrorism is a bold distinctive word it shows the act of causing terror of innocent people as well as the government(FBI).

After reading the CFR Backgrounders it does not say that ISIS poses a fundamental threat to U.S. national security. But what it does tell you is that, just because ISIS isn’t an existential threat right now doesn’t mean that United States can take it easy because it is still a serious threat to the US. The experts said that ISIS is a serious threat to international security but they agreed that the group, is in the wake of the Paris attacks, but it does not qualify as an existential threat to the United States. ISIS pose eminent threat to anybody who does not belong to ISIS group.

In the recent months, a gathering called ISIS has trumble the entire planet with their fear. This gathering has executed and constrained a large number of individuals to leave their homes. ISIS has been the focal point of media for truly a while because of their mass decimation around the Bedouin nations. ISIS has demonstrated the world that they aren't apprehensive about anybody. Their arrangement is assemble aggressors from everywhere throughout the world so they could construct new caliphate.

ISIS is a very dangerous terrorist group changing peoples lives all around the world. They kidnap people from different countries and threaten countries for money and weponds. ISIS gets most of there money from theft by robbing banks and selling oil. They get most of there equipment from the U.S. by stealing them. ISIS is not a state but they have there own flag and have claimed land on the Syria and Iraq border. ISIS is one of the biggest terrorist groups in the world because of the Syrian war and the weak government combination. That is why ISIS is the most well-funded terrorist group in the world and why they are so dangerous and

The recent developments regarding the international fight against ISIS has reached an important milestone for the Canadian government, with Canadian CF-18 fighter jets dropping laser-guided bombs over Iraq for the first time as part of the ongoing combat mission against ISIS (CBC News, 2014). Stephen Harper’s plan to send more than 600 members of the Canadian military and six CF-18 fighter jets to help with the coalition fighting against ISIS was not a plan that was met without controversy. Canada’s mission in Iraq, Operation Impact, will see airstrikes against ISIS targets inside Iraq for a period of up to six months, with special operations personnel working with Kurdish forces in our effort to “advise and assist” (Janus, 2014) the latest

The right of refugees to be granted refuge in another country has been a major human rights issue of our time. A refugee, according to international refugee law, is “all of those who flee persecution on the basis of religion, race, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group” (Goldenziel 2). In this particular case I will examine how Syrian refugees have faced persecution as a result of generalized violence from the Syrian Civil War. This is the worst humanitarian crisis of our time and millions of Syrians are in need of the world’s help. But who should be responsible for taking on the burden of hosting them? I will argue that the European Union (EU), other European nations, and industrialized nations outside of Europe should work together to provide full-support for Syrian refugees by hosting them in an equally distributed manner.

The recapturing of major population centers such Ramadi, Iraq in December or 2015, Mosul, Iraq in July 2017 and ISIS’ self-declared capital Raqqa, Syria in October 2017 has not ended the coalition’s efforts against ISIS. It has merely ended major military operations against urban centers and shifted the war back into counter-insurgency operations. The Undersecretary of Defense, Comptroller, David L. Norquist stated that the “war against ISIS is not over; and it’s not over in Syria. And although we are shifting our forces and the mission is changing, it’s also really important that we ensure that ISIS doesn’t rise again.”

The persecution of Christians is a specific example that occurs constantly in our society. They are focused on more than some other group of devotees. Between a half and 66% of Christians in the Middle East have withdrawn or been executed over the previous century.Each month's statistics show that about 300 Christians are persecuted for what they believe in. They are the most persecuted group in the world for the second year. According to activists, the Christian population in Iraq alone can be deceased soon due to the
